    I found out today I didn’t know what time my kid starts kindergarten because I’m not on facebook. My wife called the superintendent and told him “Can you please send this info out on a platform not filled with crazy people?”

    She’s been around awhile. In fact, she’s the defending champion . And she’s pretty hot, especially for a discus thrower.

    Yeah, but her next fight is against a Hungarian and Viktor Orban has already made sure they'll make this a thing.

    I took exception to Bolden (I think it was) saying the Netherlands was headed for “a sure victory” in the mixed 4x400 at last year’s world championships when Femke Bol fell in the final few meters. Alexis Holmes of the U.S. was clearly gaining on her and appeared likely to catch her at the tape. It certainly wasn’t a sure win for the Dutch.

    You decide (anchor leg starts at about 4:45):

    D Wade should be on ESPN as an NBA commentator. #1. Goodbye Doris Burke.

    I mean what are we even doing here?

    Strong disagree here.

    But he’ll probably be the top commentator for NBC, so moot point.

    He needs a lot of polishing, but there is promise.

    Big Noah Eagle fan. Football and basketball.

    Kind of feels like Team USA has a lot of face cards but no aces, especially in the swimming.

    Yeah, more like 18s. You're going to win some and lose some with that.
